              Tales of a Nomadic City

              Med Lemine Rajel & Christian Vium / Denmark & Mauritania / 360 Live Action VR / 2026 / 15 min

              This VR experience, co-created with Nouakchott youth, artists, poets, and scholars, weaves personal stories, archives, and immersive sound to portray the city’s complex history and ongoing urban transformation.

              Artist statement

              As part of the CPH:LAB 2023-2024, long-term collaborators Mauritanian filmmaker Med Lemine Rajel and Danish anthropologist Christian Vium have teamed up to develop a 15-minute, first-person VR experience based in workshops with residents in Nouakchott.

              Integrating contemporary everyday scenes, rare historical archives and an ambeosonic sound design, the experience reveals the layered and multifaceted history of Nouakchott, providing a remarkable portrait of urban transformation. The VR experience is developed with local citizens: youth, artists, poets, students, and scholars who bring to life authentic everyday experiences and personal stories through workshops.

              In collaboration with international and local partners, the experience is made available to local communities with a focus on youth and young adults and international audiences in community centres and schools as well as museums, galleries, and cultural institutions.
